Real-World Example: Doula Practice in Vancouver

Before GHL:

• Managed consults via email back-and-forth
• Intake forms were PDF-based and hard to track
• No automated check-ins or follow-up

After GHL:

• New clients book calls instantly via calendar links
• Intake form responses get added to CRM automatically
• Postpartum check-ins run on autopilot with resources and links

Automation Example: From Consultation to Postpartum

• Discovery call booked > Intake form triggered
• Session complete > Tag updated > Prenatal check-ins begin
• Due date reached > Workflow pauses for 7 days
• 7 days after birth > Postpartum follow-up sequence starts
• 6 weeks after > Review request + referral offer sent
